CLASSIC LOG REINDEER: A festive way to utilize natural resources
$55.00
Don't be surprised if after seeing your handiwork, Santa offers you a job in his workshop! During the Christmas season, we love seeing reindeer because they are happy reminders that Santa is on his way, and adding them to your holiday decorating is a stylish way to get into the spirit. Utilizing the spare windfall of logs collected from the forest floor, you will create a reindeer made of logs, branches and twigs, complete with a red nose that stands approximately 36" from the ground to the tip of the antler. It's a perfect decoration for your front lawn or porch.
Holiday Wreath: The elegance of white
$55.00
The holidays make us think about winter and winter brings images of snow. While we may dread the long winter before us, there is nothing quite like the look of a soft blanket of fresh snow on the ground just in time for Christmas. In order to capture that image, in this workshop, you will be working with a 15" white, twisted branch wreath and adding holiday elements. The contrast between the white branches and colorful foliage will add a dramatic flair to any room.
LET IT SNOW! LET IT SNOW!: Bring a little bit of winter inside
$50.00
Childhood memories of excitedly racing outside after the first snow to create your version of a snowman is the inspiration behind this workshop. You will want to find the perfect place for this reminder of those special times. You will add winter-themed botanicals to a 15" snowman complete with black hat, carrot nose, and red scarf, that will bring a little of that outdoor magic inside.
BIRCH BARK CANDLE HOLDER: A romantic touch for the holidays
$40.00
The snowy, white bark of the birch tree makes it an obvious and beautiful choice when it comes to decorating for the winter holidays. This 6" birch bark candle holder adds a romantic touch on its own, but once you include the soft, warm glow of flameless tea light candles and a holiday-inspired "Tussie Mussie", it will capture the magic of the season.
STARLIGHT SO BRIGHT: Wish upon a star tonight!
$45.00
If you've traveled through Amish country, you've noticed numerous centurion barns with stars representing the mark of the builder, and a symbol of good fortune, purity, and love. Barn stars were used in the United States during the 18th century and remain a popular form of decoration today. You will celebrate this honored tradition by aging down an oversized wooden star complete with white lights. Your beautiful star will fit into any interior or exterior decor for the upcoming holidays and beyond.
SE-12 to SE-23, Tues-Sat, 6:30 p.m., $65
HOLIDAY DECORATING ON A SHOESTRING:
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Entertaining is so simple: just open the door to your home and your heart, and allow people to come in. This is the time of year to pull out all the stops, from trying new recipes to merging time-honored traditions with something new. With creativity and a dash of style, you can mix old and new, traditional and contemporary, classic and refined. Back by popular demand, this workshop will demonstrate over one hundred decorating ideas and provide a holiday-inspired dinner prepared by our chef. Returning to this year’s workshop will be a decorating idea you will create and take home with you!
